    Channel Master DVR

    I picked um a CM-7000PAL a couple weeks ago and I'm really liking it! Between this, Neflix and Hulu Plus, I've cut my sat package to help lower my ongoing monthly costs.

    ViP 622 & 722 Running Bug Thread

    No EDD, so my symptoms on both the originals and the latest warranty replacement had nothing to do with an external drive.

    ViP 622 & 722 Running Bug Thread

    Wish I could, I have the original 722 and not the K. Each replacement has been a refurb without the ability to remove the OTA section. I've had the OTA connected and disconnected without change. I suspect some new code related to the OTA could be the cause if you found removing the...

    ViP 622 & 722 Running Bug Thread

    Sorry Twiztidh0b0, Sounds like you are in the same situation as me. Since my last post, I've had a complete dish repoint, new cable and connectors plus that warranty exchange I'd posted. Still happens but appears to be related to when I use the DVR functions, meaning if I leave the show...

    3D on Dish??????

    That's precisely the movie I watched and was underwhelmed with. Not that the clarity and the movie itself wasn't spectacular, but that the brand new $3500 HDTV I was contemplating flickered with the glasses. But I digress, I suspect your comment wasn't directed towards me, but to those that...

    3D on Dish??????

    So far I am underwhelmed by the 3D technology currently available. Even if given to me for free, I'd not use it much. It's that persistant flickering. I can handle it, but there are some epileptics in my family it'd likely seize. But even when testing it out on display at the various...

    ViP 622 & 722 Running Bug Thread

    I'm on my 4th 722. This one is rebooting now and UPS hasn't yet picked up the 3rd. Is there some kind of bug in the code? The lines all test fine (replaced anyways in the even t it's bad), dishes is peaked good (119/110 on Dish 500, 129 on a seperate Dish) and so on. The WAF is...

    I really Love Dish network.

    I neither "love" nor "hate" DISH. They are a utility that provides me a service and there is no emotional attachment either way. In the course of time, I have been satisfied with service and customer support and also the reverse. I've churned and used other providers and came back after...

    Fox HD heavy drop out/pixalization?

    It's got to be some kind of encoding or decoding bug. Yellow screens, audio drop outs, pixelated and jaggy screens........ Yet, if I pause and then go slow motion up to 1/4 (goes full frame after that) all the video is smoooth, clean and jaggy or artifact free. What's up with that!

    Sling Guide Beta & Receiver Change

    Cool! Obviously your feedback helped them to add this requested service. Now I'll worry less about a fturure time when I'd need to replace my receiver due to some issue and not able to use the Sling service anymore without a second account.

    External IP Address of 722

    The Sling service uses a PULL communications technique. For example, once activated your receiver calls out to the service and actively communicates with it. When your receiver is not actively communicating with the Sling service, their system cannot do anything to your receiver. That's...

    FOX NEWS ROLLS DOWN TO CLASSIC BRONZE 100

    What is going on? I am getting soo frustrated about this situation myself. If this and several other issues are not resolved soon, I may just take that hit on cancelling before my comitment is complete. Dish, wake up! I've gone from a total "TurboHD Gold is sweet!" to "TurboHD is sour...

    Stuck with Dish waiting for Foxnews. They have failed their promise. See ya.

    Ronald, It's truely sad for the decline in Echostar's customer service when that causes Dish to loose a customer like yourself. At least there's a DirecTV forum here as well, so no need to be a stranger. Good Luck on your new service. Let us know how it goes for you from time to time.

    Is Dish worth it?

    Before the price increase, I would have said "heck yeah"!!! Now it's still good enough to keep me as a customer, but I'd re-evaluate your options based on pricing you have from your local competition and DirecTV. You may still find Dish is the best value, but it's not as easy a "yes"...

    are there Wireless recievers for Dish network?

    I threw out a wireless AV setup a couple years back. They may have improved over the years, but I doubt it. I'd get interference any time we made popcorn. Or anyone in the apartments made popcorn.

    No Price Change??

    Strangely my Turbo HD Gold has the billing still the same p[rice as previous. Just the fee's and stuff tended to shift it arround. Unless this is for a later billing. See the copy-paste below for example: Feb 11 - Mar 10 DISH Home Protection Plan (DHPP) 5.99 DHPP Credit (removed)...

    SlingGuide - Problems

    I've finally been able to get my Sling Guide to work. I had to use a Windows XP system temporarily with IE7 as I couldn't get the "continue" button to show up on the page you check the box to accept the terms. Once I'd completed the setup from the XP setup, the system fully is functional...

    Tech Chat Recap 2-9-9

    The upcomming ViP 922 is a real cool product and one that I'm looking forward to, but I'm also wondering if it couldn't be possible to add Sling features to our existing ViP 722.' Barring that the 722 couldn't accept additional video sources, the biggest difference (besides the software and...

    Got my price increase notice

    Bizarre, I went online to check my billing as a Turbo HD customer who had signed up last August. Sure nuff, our billing for the Feb-March service showed the Turbo HD Gold at 49.99 now, but strangly our bill is "less". All the extra fee's we used to have are gone and the overal cost of the...

    Fisher Communications Channels are BACK on Dish!

    I won't cry for Fisher. They'll talk about KUNS. DId you know that KUNS-TV is "must carry" classification? Fisher did it to themselves. Now they want to change the classification and also want back revenue for when it was a "must cary". KUNS-TV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia...
